{"symbol":"NAA10","synonyms":["ARD1A","OGDNS","NATD","TE2","ARD1P","hARD1","DXS707"],"name":"N(alpha)-acetyltransferase 10, NatA catalytic subunit","description":"N-alpha-acetylation is among the most common post-translational protein modifications in eukaryotic cells. This process involves the transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl-coenzyme A to the alpha-amino group on a nascent polypeptide and is essential for normal cell function. This gene encodes an N-terminal acetyltransferase that functions as the catalytic subunit of the major amino-terminal acetyltransferase A complex. Mutations in this gene are the cause of Ogden syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
